Modern socio-economic development of Ukraine is characterized by notable qualitative and quantitative changes for the worse practically in all the spheres of vital activities of the population. At the same time rural settlement experiences the burden of transition period. The article deals with the technical approaches to the geographical investigations of the dynamics of socio- economic condition of the rural settlements (based on of Ivano-Frankivsk region, Ukraine). The geographical aspects of the rural depopulation problem as the identifier of economic and social state of the region are revealed; the territorial peculiarities of the villagers’ level of employment in social production as the basis of their financial condition and in personal subsidiary husbandry are disclosed; the geography of employment is shown: a) within the limits of “own” settlement, b) outside the “own” settlement, including the settlements abroad; structure of the employment of rural settlement depending on the economic activity; presence of the economic activity objects in rural area and their sectoral structure. Keywords: rural area, rural settlement, mortality, depopulation, migration, employment of the population, structure of the employment. 1. Introduction Problem statement. Under the condition of economic crisis and transition, the problem of economic and social situation in rural area increases: the number of economic activity of objects (especially in production sphere) and social infrastructure decreases. Correspondingly the number of employed in social production decreases and the number of unemployed increases. The level of material security of the villagers reduces and illegal labor migration grows, depopulation and outflow of migration continues and as a result – the depressed territories increase. The aim of our investigation is to have a closer look to the modern problems and to disclose the territorial differences of the dynamics of the demographic situation, economic and social position of rural settlements based on the Ivano-Frankivsk region, Ukraine from the 1 Faculty of Geography, Chernivtsi Yuriy Fedkovych National University (Chernivtsi, Ukraine) v.dzhaman @chnu.edu.ua 2 Faculty of Geography, Chernivtsi Yuriy Fedkovych National University (Chernivtsi, Ukraine) 3 Faculty of Geography , Chernivtsi Yuriy Fedkovych National University (Chernivtsi, Ukraine) [email protected] point of view of administrative districts, paying special attention to the imbalance in space- system “centre-periphery” and in different categories of rural settlements (big – middle – small). The task of the investigation is to disclose the peculiarities of the technical approaches and infobase of the problem under the investigation, to set the “horizontal” (territorial) distinction of the vital rate and depopulation of the rural settlement in Ivano-Frankivsk region from the point of view of the administrative regions and their “vertical” peculiarities in different by population categories of rural settlement; to show the geographical peculiarities of the villagers’ employment level in social production and in personal subsidiary husbandry; (according to the place of abode, pendular labour assignments, labour migration and emigration) the occurrence of the objects of economic activity in the rural area; their sectoral structure and the structure of employment according to the economic activity. Reference literature overview. The basis of the investigation is compiled from the fundamental Geographical theories, conceptual approaches of Ukrainian and foreign scientists to the complex studying of socio-economic systems, complexing and integral processes. Methodology of the socio-geographical investigations of the territorial system and complexes was elaborated by Saushkin Yu. H., Pistun M. D., Rudenko L. H., Topchiev O. H., Shabliy O.I., Oliynyk Ya. B. [8, 11, 12, 17, 19] and others. The theoretical regulations of the population Geography and territorial systems of settling are revealed in works by Kovaliov S. O., Pokshyshevskiy V. V., Khorev B. S., Nudelman V. I., Pitiurenko Yu. I., Dotsenko A. I., Dzhaman V. O. [1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 18] and others. Less attention was paid to the Geography of rural population, but Kovaliov S. O., Krisanov D. F., Ftomov H. S., Shepotko L. O., Dotsenko A. I.[2,4,6,13,20] and others are noted for the outstanding contribution to this field. Study sources and methods. Legislative authority and executive authority pay great attention to the problems of rural areas in Ukraine, thus affirming their national significance. During the latest years a number of legislation considering this very problem was enacted. In particular, laws “On the master plan of territory development in Ukraine”, “On the stimulation of the development of local regions and depressive areas”, “On the acceleration of the social and economic development of depressive areas”, in the ordinance of Verkhovna Rada “On the concept of population center development”, in “Concept of the National Programme of rural areas revival for 1995-2005” and other legislative acts that define the legal, economic and organizational mechanisms in regard to socio-economic development of the regions and population centers. According to the “Concept of the National Programme of rural areas revival for 1995- 2005” the 4 total investigations of rural areas in 1991, 1996, 2001 and 2005 were executed by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine. The aim of such a monitoring (which is held once in 5 years) was to observe and analyze the statistical data of socio-economic situation in rural areas, creation of the data bank for the state policy development which aims at forming steady living conditions in rural areas, satisfaction of the economic and social needs of rural population, complex development of the rural territories. The investigation of the dynamics of the economic and social situation of the settlement region foresees the investigation of special phenomenon of concentration and deconcentration, contraction and diffusion, centralization and decentralization, differentiation and levelling, etc. For example, the comparison of the population concentration and the amount of social services for different time periods represent the intensification of the concentration or on the contrary- deconcentration: I_c=C_2/C_1 , 100 where: C_1 and C_2- concentration factors in previous and succeeding periods, I_c- change of the factor C. In case I_c>1 takes place the process intensification of concentration of the analyzed phenomenon, on the contrary – when I_c<1 we can observe the process of deconcentration. The process of centralization (or decentralization) is defined during the confrontation of the quotients of the analyzed index (the amount of corresponding social service) of the main center of local settlement during the investigated period: I_z=Z_2/Z_1 , where: Z_1and Z_2- centralization in previous and succeeding periods; I_z- change of the centralization. Study results. In order to execute monitoring in rural areas, the form of statistical recording #1 – village “Socio- economic characteristic of the rural area” was elaborated. The precise characteristic of socio-economic situation in each rural area of Ukraine is disclosed in 82 items which are specified by 136 subitems. Serious prerequisites to the formation of economic and social positions in rural area are its population. The importance of population is defined in such a way because the size of the villages in terms of the population determined the geographical binding of the economic objects of social and production sphere and formed their functional type and population potential. Average population in Ivano-Frankivsk region is (stated on 01.01.2013) – 1022 persons [16, p. 23-24]. This is the third index among the 25 regions of Ukraine, the first one is Transcarpathian region (1361 persons) and the second is Chernivtsi region (1310 persons). The average population of rural settlements in Ukraine is 498 persons. In

  • Appendices I
    Appendices I. Archival Sources Archival research for this monograph was conducted in Lviv, the former capital of Galicia, in 1983. To orient myself in the rich archival holdings of this city, I benefitted from the unpublished manuscript of Patricia K. Grimsted's forthcoming guide to Soviet Ukrainian archives and manuscript repositories' as well as from a number of published works.' Plans to use archives in Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk were frustrated, as was the plan to use the manuscript collection of the Institute of Literature of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR (in Kiev). Work in the Austrian archives in 1982 did not uncover sources of direct relevance to the subject of this monograph, but the Viennese archives remain an important and little-explored repository of historical documentation on Galician history. The richest collection of unpublished sources on the history of Galicia during the Austrian period is located in the Central State Historical Archives of the Ukrainian SSR in Lviv (U Tsentrainyi derzhavnyi istorychnyi arkhiv URSR u rn. Lvovi; abbre- viated as TsDIAL). The Central Archives have inherited the papers of various Galician government institutions and major civic organizations. Unfortunately, there is no published guide to these archives, although a number of articles describe aspects of their holdings.' The papers of the Presidium of the Galician Viceroy's Office (U Haiytske narnisnytstvo, rn. Lviv. Prezydiia) are contained in TsDIAL, fond 146, opysy 4-8 (and presumably others). Particularly valuable for this study were documents dealing with the publication and confiscation of political brochures and periodicals, including , Patricia K.

SUMMARY The paper introduces GIS-based maps of the geomorphological and phytogeographical division of the Ukrainian Carpathians (a part of Eastern Carpathian Mts.), which were developed for routine use in biogeography and based on the consolidation of the existing publications. The map of the geomorphological division includes 57 OGUs (operational geographic units), and the map of the phytogeographical division – 18 OGUs of the lowest rank. Geomorphological units are supported with available synonyms, which should help in work with different topic-related Ukrainian publications. Both maps follow strict hierarchical classification and are briefly discussed.

  • DAY 6—TUESDAY, JUNE 12 on to Ivano-Frankivsk
    DAY 6—TUESDAY, JUNE 12 On to Ivano-Frankivsk I was up at 6:00 am and beat the wake-up call. I packed my bags for our next leg of the tour, to Ivano-Frankivsk. Ivano-Frankivsk is about 135 kilometer south-east of Lviv. On the way we would stop in the town of Rohatyn to see the statue dedicated to Roksolana, Rohatyn’s greatest pride. We had our final breakfast at the Opera Hotel, and lugged our bags to the lobby. Our bus pulled up at 9:05 am and we met our driver, Myroslav. He spoke very little English, so Romana acted as our interpreter. This would be our first introduction to the quality of the roads. We had heard horror stories about the many pot-holes festooning Ukraine’s highways. The road leaving Lviv is in good shape and it wasn’t until we started to go through some of the towns that we encountered rough driving. We were on the look-out for storks and their large nests, often found on top of light standards. Storks are supposed to bring good luck, so their nests are left alone.
